To be fair there are a lot of similarities... funniest thing I ever saw was waiting in a queue in a diner and a family of Geordies spoke to the girl at the counter about putting their name on the waiting list... I had to go over and act as an interpreter... the girl would not have it that we were both from the same country... Ha Ha Ha!!!

To be fair the typical American's only exposure to a Londoner is either Dick Van Dyke (Mary Poppins) or Bob 'Oskins (Who Framed Roger rabbit)... so unless you are singing about a Jolly 'Oliday or shouting out `Where's that bleedin' Rabbit' then they are as clueless as us thing Joey Tribiani (Friends) is a New York accent ..... How yo' doinnnnnnnn

Whilst in Vegas and playing Black Jack an America couple started talking to me and asked where I was from and I said London. They proceeded to query 'I didn't realise London was in Australia'. Fucking stupid cunts.
